*Gone Down Meadowland* is the much-anticipated debut album release from Norwich, UK psych outfit Floral Image, releasing 25th April 2025 on the renowned Fuzz Club.
After an extensive touring schedule throughout 2023, the band spent the following winter looking both inward and outward to the wide-skied rural landscape with the aim of distilling their wide pool of influences. Once the gigging horizons regularly started to expand beyond the sleepy shire of home, a fear of musical inertia had left the group asking themselves what their own sound even was. The long nights were used to re-assess and reconnect with a sense of play that had found itself shrunken in the rear-view mirror of a touring van. At Friday night jam sessions; wrapped in coats and warmed by homemade cocktails, Tex and Phil’s freezing living room provided the appropriate cultivation ground for the seeds of a new musical shape - one not solely intending to be big and formidable live, but provide a softer, more subtle recorded companion for both drunken gaiety with friends and unleashed introspection of the self.
More than ever, the band wanted to produce a brand of East-Coast psychedelia that reflected the natural lusciousness and glorious solitude of the immediate world around them. Coming fresh out of support shows with *Holy Wave* and *Glass Beams* and witnessing first-hand how the delicate, sonic precision they flex on recordings only excels their live shows further, real justification was found. Over 30 songs were conjured, considered and arranged before being whittled down to a final 10 that epitomise what they do best - ten tracks of vivid hue, harnessed live power, all laced together in fluid lyrical harmonies. Taking inspiration from band favourites Woods, KGLW, Stereolab, among many others, a string of at-home recording sessions commenced over a 6-week period across the summer of 2024.
There is a mischief and daydream to the character Floral Image, on full dynamic display across the record- a reflection of both the playful fraternity of band members Fergus Nolan (vocals, guitars), Jack Warner (vocals, keys), Matt Kennedy (bass guitar), Mitch Forsyth (drums, visuals), & Phil Whitton (guitars, visuals), and the ever-weaving textures they make together. It is an infrastructure that is unstructured; a body of work that bends and grows and shifts between light, dark, malaise, excitement. There are moments of head-down ferocity and, right there beside them, pools of pulsing wonderment. Fist and feather, hand in hand.
